Time to read a short story. Yes? A quick read.

The code is valid for another 2 days.

Thanks @kelefox.bsky.social for this week's #TBBChat. I'd suggest everyone to check #31DaysOfSpooktober (I've shared 18 stories till now) - and if you'd like to get an e-book with 23 of my flash/short stories it's on discount till end of month. #WritingCommunity #PromoSky #BookSky #ReaderSky

Off to sleep, but you can end your week buying some art or photo prints... Or paypal www.paypal.com/paypalme/luc... (But ideally pick something from the Ko-Fi store: Ko-Fi.com/lucidillusio...)

Some days it's really difficult. 🙃

Every time I need to work on my showreel I hate all of my old work (which is way better than above mentioned) - so how does one go ahead. I also feel this when I'm writing and sharing my work and I can get barely a handful of eyeballs - how do you keep drowning that voice? #WritingCommunity

Good morning bsky, how's the imposter syndrome holding you hostage this week? I've been thinking about this for a while and a part of me that has worked on editing videos for clients whose videographers didn't bother what they were shooting and made banger videos... 1/2 #Artist #BehindTheCamera

Theme for #BlueSkyArtShow is #Vertical and it led me to write a new spooky story about a Vertically Challenged poltergeist. www.patreon.com/posts/141425... #WritingCommunity #Funny #Flash #Spooktober #31DaysOfHalloween

I think this story is super funny and I should remind you all to read it next week when I put it on my website, but if you ask me, this is a good story to get a free patreon membership for instead of waiting... (Hopefully this pops up on Discovery)

Made a new artwork to go with today's #fridayflashfiction - It's an attempt at hilarious horror story. You can read it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/141425059 #artistonmastodon #MastoArt #DigitalArt #lineart #humour

I finally set up compose button on my laptop cause it is so much easier to get smart quotes and em dash using it.

Received a new rejection today, but I've also sent out 3 new stories this week. (Target is to send more stories out each month than rejections received 🙃 at some point it won't be possible right?) #WritingCommunity #IAmWriting #WriteEditSubmit #BookSky
